Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of mechanical assembly, and particularly relates to a high-precision assembly process for three parallel guide rails. Background Art

[0002] Linear guide rails are widely used in linear motion components of structures such as machine tools, automated production equipment, medical equipment, and precision measuring instruments. They are often used in conjunction with ball screws for reciprocating linear motion and have the characteristics of high precision, high rigidity, low friction, long life, easy installation and maintenance, etc.

[0003] The number of linear guide rails selected for different usage scenarios needs to be determined according to the type, size, direction, acting point, and distribution of the external load. The more commonly used ones are single-guide rail structures, double-guide rail structures, and triple-guide rail structures. The single-guide rail structure is often used in cases with smaller loads; the double-guide rail structure is suitable for cases with larger loads or larger eccentric loads because the double-guide rail structure can withstand a certain bending moment; when the guide rail is installed on a horizontal plane and the load has a large span in the width direction of the slider, and it is difficult to meet the requirements of stable operation of the mechanism and maintaining a certain motion accuracy with a double-guide rail structure, a triple-guide rail structure needs to be adopted. Since the triple-guide rail structure is an overconstrained structure, very strict requirements are imposed on the assembly accuracy of the three guide rails during the assembly process. Otherwise, the phenomenon of insufficient accuracy will occur during the service process of the mechanism. In the assembly process of the existing rolling guide rail assembly technology, there are no process measures to ensure the straightness of the guide rail itself. Currently, there is a lack of an effective high-precision assembly process for three parallel guide rails. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] A high-precision assembly process for three parallel guide rails, comprising the following steps:

[0006] S1, install the straightedge; place the straightedge on the marble installation platform and make the straightedge parallel to the straight line where the second linear guide rail installation hole is located and fix the straightedge;

[0007] S2, install the second linear guide rail; align the installation holes of the second linear guide rail with the second linear guide rail installation holes on the marble installation platform in sequence, and sequentially install the screws for fixing the second linear guide rail on the marble installation platform. The screws are not pre-tightened temporarily;

[0008] S3, adjust the parallelism of the second linear guide rail relative to the straightedge; use the first detection device including a marble base and a micrometer to detect and adjust the parallelism between the second linear guide rail and the straightedge within 0.01 mm;

[0009] S4. Adjust the straightness of the second linear guide rail so that the straightness of the second linear guide rail is within 10″, and then lock the screws for fixing the second linear guide rail.

[0010] S5. Install the third linear guide rail and adjust the parallelism of the third linear guide rail relative to the second linear guide rail. Do not fully tighten the screws for fixing the third linear guide rail on the marble installation platform temporarily.

[0011] S6. Adjust the straightness of the third linear guide rail to ensure that the straightness of the third linear guide rail is within 10″, and then lock the screws for fixing the third linear guide rail.

[0012] S7. Install the first linear guide rail and adjust the parallelism of the first linear guide rail relative to the second linear guide rail. Do not tighten the screws for fixing the first linear guide rail on the marble installation platform temporarily.

[0013] S8. Adjust the straightness of the first linear guide rail so that the straightness of the first linear guide rail is within 10″, and finally lock the screws for fixing the first linear guide rail.

[0014] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] The present invention uses detection devices such as dial indicators and autocollimators, combined with the designed special tooling, to effectively ensure the installation accuracy of the three parallel guide rails. Specifically, it includes:

[0016] (1) The present invention takes the flat ruler, a standard measuring tool, as the reference for installing the guide rail, and uses a dial indicator to detect the parallelism of the guide rail relative to the flat ruler, which can achieve a relatively high installation accuracy.

[0017] (2) The present invention uses special tooling to adjust the straightness of the guide rail and combines it with an autocollimator for detection, which can effectively ensure the installation straightness of each guide rail.

[0018] (3) When installing the guide rails on both sides, the present invention takes the second linear guide rail installed first as the reference, which can effectively ensure the parallelism between the three guide rails. Description of the Drawings

[0028] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] S3, adjust the parallelism of the second linear guide rail 012 relative to the straightedge 013; refer to Figure 3 , use the first detection device 014 including a marble base and a micrometer to detect and adjust the parallelism between the second linear guide rail 012 and the straightedge 013 until the parallelism between the vertical reference surface of the second linear guide rail 012 and the side surface of the straightedge 013 is within a specific value (within 0.01 mm), and do not completely tighten the screws for fixing the second linear guide rail 012 temporarily. Among them, the marble base has a first reference surface and a second reference surface that are perpendicular to each other.

[0033] S4. Adjust the straightness of the second linear guide rail 012; in combination with the use of the first special tooling 021, the second special tooling 022 and the autocollimator 020, adjust the straightness of the second linear guide rail to meet the requirements. Refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 , fix a plane mirror 023 on the slider 011 on the second linear guide rail. On both sides of the second linear guide rail 012 and on the marble installation platform 010, respectively fix the first special tooling 021 and the second special tooling 022 through screws at the hole positions corresponding to the Figure 2 second installation holes 0162 of the first special tooling and the second installation holes 0172 of the second special tooling, and install set screws in the set screw holes 040 on the side surfaces of the two toolings of the first special tooling 021 and the second special tooling 022 respectively.

Refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 6 and Figure 8 , fix a plane mirror 023 on the slider 052 of the first linear guide rail, and align the first special tooling 021 and the second special tooling 022 with the first installation hole 0161 of the first special tooling and the first installation hole 0171 of the second special tooling on the marble installation platform 010 respectively. Fix the first special tooling 021 and the second special tooling 022 to the marble installation platform 010 with screws respectively, and install set screws into the set screw holes 040 on the sides of the two toolings of the first special tooling 021 and the second special tooling 022. Use an autocollimator 020 to detect the straightness of the first linear guide rail 051, and according to the detection result, adjust the set screw on one side of the two special toolings of the first special tooling 021 or the second special tooling 022, so that the straightness of the first linear guide rail 051 is within a specific value (1″). Then fully tighten the screws used to fix the first linear guide rail 051 to complete the installation and adjustment of the first linear guide rail 051.

[0040] As Figure 2 shown, the marble installation platform 010 is successively provided with a third installation hole 0163 of the first special tooling, a third linear guide rail installation hole 0153, a third installation hole 0173 of the second special tooling, a second installation hole 0162 of the first special tooling, a second linear guide rail installation hole 0152, a second installation hole 0172 of the second special tooling, a first installation hole 0161 of the first special tooling, a first linear guide rail installation hole 0151, and a first installation hole 0171 of the second special tooling, which are parallel to each other.

[0041] Preferably, the straightedge 013 in step S1 is a rectangular straightedge, and its length is equivalent to the lengths of the three guide rails. The distance between the straightedge 013 and the second linear guide rail installation hole 0152 is suitable for placing the marble base and the dial indicator of the first detection device 014.

[0042] Preferably, the specific steps of S3 are as follows:

[0043] Insert the screws for fixing the second linear guide 012 into the second linear guide mounting holes 0152 but do not fully tighten them. Place the bottom surface of the marble base of the first detection device 014 on the marble mounting platform 010, and place the dial indicator head on the vertical reference surface of the second linear guide 012. Move the marble base and keep the side reference surface of the marble base in close contact with the side of the straightedge 013 during the movement. Adjust the position of the second linear guide 012 according to the dial indicator reading, and sequentially tighten the screws for fixing the second linear guide 012 to set an appropriate pre-tightening torque for the screws (for example, set the screw tightening torque to two-thirds of the target torque) until the parallelism between the vertical reference surface of the second linear guide 012 and the side of the straightedge 013 is within 0.01 mm.

[0044] Preferably, the specific steps of S4 are as follows:

[0045] Fix the plane mirror 023 on the slider 011 of the second linear guide by gluing or other means; install the autocollimator 020 on a stable base (or tripod), keep the center line of the object tube of the autocollimator 020 at the same height as the center line of the plane mirror 023, turn on the switch of the autocollimator 020 and perform calibration, and adjust the x and y axis measurement values near the origin. Slide the slider 011 on the second linear guide back and forth, observe the change in the x-axis reading of the autocollimator, determine the straightness deviation direction of the second linear guide 012, and adjust the set screws of the first special tooling 021 or the second special tooling 022 on the side where the deviation direction is located according to the magnitude of the deviation amount. For example, Figure 6 in the case where the second linear guide 012 is deviated to the left, tighten the set screws of the first special tooling 021 near the deviation, and vice versa, tighten the set screws on the second special tooling 022. Ensure that the straightness of the second linear guide 012 is within the tolerance (10″) range, and finally fully tighten all the screws for fixing the second linear guide 012.

Both the first special tooling 021 and the second special tooling 022 include two groups of holes. One group is the counterbore holes for fixing the tooling, which penetrate the upper and lower surfaces of the first special tooling 021 or the second special tooling 022, and the other group is the set screw holes 040, which are located on the side of the first special tooling 021 or the second special tooling 022 and are used to adjust the straightness of one side of the guide rail.

[0047] Preferably, the marble installation platform 010 for installing the guide rail is reserved with process holes: the first installation hole 0161 of the first special tooling, the second installation hole 0162 of the first special tooling, the third installation hole 0163 of the first special tooling, the first installation hole 0171 of the second special tooling, the second installation hole 0172 of the second special tooling, and the third installation hole 0173 of the second special tooling, which are used for installing the first special tooling 021 and the second special tooling 022.

[0048] Preferably, both the installation of the third linear guide rail 030 in step S5 and the installation of the first linear guide rail 051 in step S7 are based on the slider 011 on the second linear guide rail.

[0049] Preferably, the specific adjustment method for adjusting the straightness of the first linear guide rail 051 in step S8 is the same as the specific adjustment method for adjusting the straightness of the second linear guide rail 012 in step S4 and the specific adjustment method for adjusting the straightness of the third linear guide rail 030 in step S6.

[0050] In all the examples shown and described here, any specific value should be construed as merely exemplary, not as a limitation. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values.
